Reach Catcher's Mitt
 

Request for input from those of you with equipment expertise...

I have the opportunity to purchase a Reach catcher's mitt. Sorry no photo. Diameter is about 10 to 11 inches. The back side, with strap is best described as typical glove-colored leather. Some grunge, but in good shape overall. The front side is a sort of aged, white suede-like leather. Reach labels and stampings are in great condition. On the front side, patent info is printed/stamped in black with the year 1891.

I know little about gloves. Can someone fill in the blanks for me.
Regards, John
